Nutcracker Collection

Luverne is the town with more nutcrackers than people. The third largest nutcracker collection in the world resides in the History Center, museum of the Rock County Historical Society. Almost 5,000 nutcrackers (and nutcracker paraphernalia) peer at you from every corner. The town conducts a nutcracker game every Christmas season. For 2022 it is nutcracker hide-and-seek.
